Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We take a series of digital measurements across main living areas, hallways, and bedrooms to build a clear profile of high and low points. This matters because isolated dips can indicate localised issues, while broader trends can suggest more general foundation movement.
Where older sections meet renovations, level changes can show up as a step, slope, or twisting through doorways. We focus measurements at these junctions to help identify whether the transition is a finish issue (like flooring) or a structural level difference.
Bathrooms, laundries, and kitchens can influence floor performance through leaks, moisture build-up, or altered subfloor ventilation. We take additional points around wet areas to help flag patterns that may warrant plumbing checks or moisture investigation.
We record not just where the floor is out, but how it moves across the home (for example, falling towards one corner or twisting through a corridor). Understanding direction helps narrow likely drivers such as drainage concentration or movement at one side of the structure.
Measurements are matched with on-site observations such as sticking doors, visible cracking, or changes in floor finishes. Linking symptoms to the level profile makes it easier to prioritise follow-up, especially when multiple issues are present.
Your report explains the readings in plain language and outlines sensible next actions where required, such as monitoring, drainage improvements, plumbing checks, or seeking engineering advice. This helps you move from data to decisions without guesswork.

Yes. Older timber floors can feel uneven due to stump movement, subfloor moisture changes, or normal age-related settlement. A Basic Digital Floor Level survey in Pascoe Vale South records precise deviations across rooms, helping you distinguish general “bounce” from measurable level change. The results are especially useful where you’re planning new flooring, re-stumping, or negotiating a purchase based on suspected movement.
You’ll receive documented readings taken throughout the home, presented as a clear floor level profile showing high and low points. We include room-by-room notes to explain where deviations concentrate and what that pattern can suggest. The report also outlines practical next steps, such as monitoring, drainage checks, or seeking specialist advice if the level change appears significant or progressive.
Most Pascoe Vale South inspections take around 45 to 90 minutes on site, depending on the size of the home, furniture access, and how many transition points (such as extensions and wet areas) need extra readings. If access is restricted in key rooms, we’ll explain any limitations and take alternative points where possible to keep the level profile meaningful.
They can. A neat finish can still conceal level differences where a new slab meets an older floor system or where internal walls were altered. Small steps or subtle slopes often show up at doorways, hall junctions, or across open-plan areas. A Basic Digital Floor Level survey helps identify whether the change is isolated to the renovation zone or part of a wider movement pattern.
It provides accurate measurement and a strong indication of where movement is occurring, but it doesn’t replace a structural engineering assessment or invasive investigation. If the level profile suggests abnormal movement, we’ll recommend appropriate next actions such as checking drainage, plumbing, subfloor conditions, or engaging an engineer. The advantage is you’ll know where to focus further inspection instead of guessing.
